Description
Built by Esperance Bay Land Company at Chaplain Street (now Castletown) this jetty was 300m after an extension in 1896 by AB Wright. It had a head depth of 7m. The population of the ‘new town’ was around 80. Connected to the town by horse-drawn trucks and later a tram line ran along the foreshore to the Customs Bond Store to facilitate clearance of dutiable goods. The jetty was sold to Bryan Fullerton in c1948 and the timbers were removed, milled then sold.
